Good morning everyone! This is one of my Design Team projects that I created using the Scraps Of Elegance, December Kit-Winter Wishes.

I wanted to take the kit and add on's and show you how you can get lots of wonderful Christmas gifts from it.

A layout makes a perfect gift for anyone special in your life. You can give it as is, put it in a shadow box, or mount it onto canvas, and you have a personal, amazing gift to give to that someone special.

This layout features a photo of my son, Draven, when he was 5 years old. We were getting ready to board the Polar Express here in Chattanooga, and my husband, David snapped this sweet closeup of him. He was so excited, but boy was it cold outside, so he was all bundled up for the Winter. The layout features a pull out tag with journaling about that day tucked under the burlap. I just love Winter, and this kit is so perfect for capturing that Winter feel. I used lots of technique on this one. There is lots of inking, fussy cutting, tearing, painting with Snow Tex, paints, inks and stickles.

Such a lovely layout and your son looks so sweet ! I look a lot of layouts to learn scrapping and I see so much beautiful stuff here. Sometimes I just cant believe it. But when I see a layout of you, I feel comfortable.Like " coming home" (lol) It is just the style I love!

WOW!!! love the layered snowflakes against that gorgeous blue background. The entire lo is a wonderful collection of techniques combined with pretty embellies. And such a sweet photo - truly a treasure.
